Hints

  • Baffle pull-rivets with longer grip than stock (1/8" grip)
  • Silicone baffle seal material
    • Aircraft Spruce sells silicone baffle seal material in 3" strips and 36" wide fabric. They supposedly work better and last longer than the stock black rubber material. They are available in lipstick red, rust red, and blue.

  • Step 4: The CB-1002C / CB-1010C air dams are too large as shipped. You will probably get two hot front cylinders if left at the original size. Several builders report that they never even installed them and that this was the correct call. See also:

  • Step 1: Consider adding the anti chafing plastic tubing (0.062 X 1/4) BEFORE bending or threading. It is VERY difficult to push the tubing over the bends and threads even when warmed up.
